My buddy is a lifelong bachelor, and at 42 he might make it. He says women are like postage stamps... you lick 'em, stick 'em, and send 'em on their way. He usually keeps one about a month before trading her in.

Reminds me of the scene from Family Guy where Quagmire sleeps with the social worker:

[Social Worker, laying in bed the morning after] "Glenn, honey, I have a question for you: What do you do for a living?"

[Quagmire, standing in the doorway with a cup of coffee] "Heh heh, and I have a question for you: Why are you still here?"

I don't think I read a damn thing that wasn't true. I'm not saying I'm any different but I definitely got to experience the other side of the argument. I never realized how much I try to avoid arguing with women.

I was troubleshooting some Citrix server crap and I had to reboot. There was an argument to be had and of course it was wrong of me to fix this. I can't believe how fast her voice went from rage to giddy with the simplest phrase from me.

Attractiveness grows when you can actually talk to them! My daughter is especially beautiful (now she is 7). I teach her "girl power". That means go to college and be self sufficient before you raise a family, that way, if the guy turns into a jerk, she is not stuck staying in a abusive relationship. And of course if that happens he will be tortured and killed by me anyway....
This thread should be an eye opener to all fathers out there!!!!!
The crazy emotional part is due to the 2 X chromosomes, that we are just gonna have to live with.

I want to pull my hair put so often when I talk to members of the opposite sex. However, there's a fairly attractive girl I know who is going to be a biomedical engineer. Engineers like logic. I wanted to be an engineer. Maybe I should go after her. What does JF think?

YES! Pretty and smart trumps perfect 10 and stupid.
Otherwise you get stuck doing everything! Or fixing all the stuff her dumb a** breaks!

All of those factors were involved in my thought process. I'm just really on the fence about whether or not I want to get into a long term relationship right now. I'm a lazy person, that's why I didn't make it through engineering school. Relationships require effort, and I'm trying to focus on school right now so distractions need to be minimized. Although trying to decide one way or the other is is kind of distracting right now. That's another thread though.

I was raised by a mother who used the silent treatment on me since I was very young, when a woman tries that on me now... it makes me laugh inside because they have no idea how young I was when I learned to deal with that.
